At odds

Well I could write about my short trip to Ohio but I really don't feel like it. I have been waiting for my son to regain sanity and it is going to be a long wait I'm afraid. There is nothing worse that a conservative redneck who thinks he's right. You just can't get through the thickness of his skull. So I must wait. He allowed me a visit with my granddaughters last week and I could visit again but I would have to see him again. Right now that isn't a priority. May be down the road a ways. When he needs me he will soften.

Big Guy has added a room on the garage. It is my potting shed/craft room. It will also store wood pellets for the pellet stove. It has much window light and a work table along 2 walls. The upstairs will also be nice when he finishes. He says it will be a space. Not sure what that means but I'm sure it will have a deck. It will be a nice place to hide out in when I need quiet. I think the upstairs will be for the dogs too. It will make a nice shelter in the winter.

Big Guy's grandson went home today. His dad picked him up. He's a good kid and was very helpful during his time here. He said he wants to come back next summer. He pointed out that he could come anytime since his grandpa will be retired. I won't be long, the 1st of October. The guest room/computer room will be the next project. He has to finish wiring the garage/potting shed too.

I will think nice thoughts about my son tonight.

Hi Ms Rose,
sorry to hear about what you thought of your son. maybe he is undergoing some issues right now he needs to think more positively and more flexible? i believe he will have sanity, maybe just not now. I believe he will be fine! I hope you're not pushing too hard to get along with him! I know you still love him. maybe sitting down andhave a heart to heart chat helps! :)
